Topic: Reference Book/Catalogue Clear-Out

[Pinkspoons]

I'm having a sort through of my reference books, and I'm looking to dispose of the duplicate titles and titles that are superfluous to my own collecting interests (much to the relief of my shelves).

This is only what I've typed up so far - there are probably another 30-50 titles to go.

This list mostly comprises books on ancient glass through to Victorian. There are books on modern glass to follow. The non-English titles are profusely illustrated, and so are still useful for those who don't read German, French or Danish.

If anyone's interested in any of the titles, I'm letting them go at more or less what I paid for them, plus P&P at cost - so drop me an email.

Odd. My post contents vanished.

In brief - having a tidy up of my reference book collection, moving on the duplicate titles and books superfluous to my buying interests... so just seeing if anyone here might be interested.

I'm still working my way through the titles, and these ones are mostly on ancient glass through to Victorian. Titles on modern/contemporary glass to follow. The non-English titles are profusely illustrated, and so are still useful to those who can't read German, Danish or French.

I'm just looking to get back what I paid, plus P&P at cost. If anyone is interested, or wants more info/photographs, drop me a message.
